Beskrivning
Small Signal Audio Design is a highly practical handbook providing an extensive repertoire of circuits that can be assembled to make almost any type of audio system. This updated fifth edition offers new content on recent opamps, electrolytic distortion, noise in MM RIAA preamplifiers, reducing the noise in tone-control stages, balanced line inputs, and much more.This book continues the engaging prose style familiar to readers, as you learn why mercury-filled cables are not a good idea, the pitfalls of plating gold on copper, and what quotes from Star Trek have to do with PCB design.Learn how to:make amplifiers with apparently impossibly low noisedesign discrete circuitry that can handle enormous signals with vanishingly low distortiontransform the performance of low-cost-opampsbuild active filters with very low noise and distortion while saving money on expensive capacitorsmake incredibly accurate volume controlsmake a huge variety of audio equalisersmake magnetic cartridge preamplifiers that have noise so low it is limited by basic physics, by using load synthesissum, switch, clip, compress, and route audio signalsbuild simple but ultra-low noise power suppliesbe confident that phase perception is not an issueIncluding all the crucial theory but with minimal mathematics, Small Signal Audio Design is the must-have companion for anyone studying, researching, or working in audio engineering and audio electronics.

Recensioner i media

"Self provides solid, well-explained technical information throughout the book, all gained from years of experience and a thorough understanding of the entire topic (...) His book exudes skilful engineering on every page, and I found it a very refreshing, enjoyable, and inspirational read (...) If you have the slightest interest in audio circuit design this book has to be considered an essential reference. Very highly recommended."Hugh Robjohns, Sound on Sound magazine"This book presents a large body of knowledge and countless insider-tips from an award-winning commercial audio designer (...) Douglas Self dumps a lifetime's worth of thoroughly-tested audio circuit knowledge into one biblical tome."Joseph Lemmer, Tape Op magazine

Betyg & recensioner

2 recensioner, genomsnitt 5/5

  1. 5/5 Björn H

    Small Signal Audio Design är inte en bok som man läser i ett sträck.
    Det är en faktabok som man snarare skall se som ett uppslagsverk där Douglas Self delar med sig av sitt enorma kunnande inom elektronik området, speciellt då Audio. Det finns 4 utgåvor av Small Signal Audio Design som spänner över en tidsrymd av ca 16 år. Man kan tycka att en del av av samma fakta finns i flera av utgåvorna men författaren har verkligen försökt spegla den snabba utvecklingen inom elektroniken. Det har han gjort med objektiva mätkurvor och diagram och inte med subjektivt tyckande som verkar ha så stor framtoning i dagens samhälle.
